1. Look at the items on your Study Guide that pertain to the topic for the upcoming lecture. 2. Read the lecture material (see my suggestions below) BEFORE coming to class. TAKE NOTES from the material you are reading IN YOUR OWN WORDS. While you’re reading, if you see something that was in the Study Guide, highlight it in your textbook. 3. Take some notes in class during lecture if you need to, and then as soon as possible after class COMBINE your reading notes for that topic with your class notes - AND COMPLETE THE STUDY GUIDE FOR THAT SECTION. 4. Once you’ve geared up to start studying for a test, try and CONDENSE your notes a little more without sacrificing. REMEMBER, when studying for an exam, you are now using ONLY your notes, not your textbook (unless you need clarification about something). Make sure you’ve gone over your notes and memorized them AT LEAST three times before the exam.
5. Finally, get a BLANK Study Guide, put your notes aside then answer the questions on the study guide and compare your answers to your notes. If you can’t answer the questions correctly or address the points on your Study Guide without looking at your notes, you’re not yet ready for the exam. Review/re-memorize those things you are still not solid on. A suggested method for reading your text prior to coming to lecture is the following:a. Skim the chapter section HEADINGS first to get an overview of the chapter contentsb. Look at all the figures in the text and read the legends for the figures/tables before you actually read. Ask yourself what you know about the figures as you’re looking at them.c. Read over the Study Guide for the material (that I give you for each exam) before you read to focus your thoughts on the most important 20% of what you will have to know.d. Read the Chapter summary (yes, BEFORE you read the Chapter) and while you’re reading through it keep asking yourself what you already know and what you don’t know, and focus on the things that are mentioned in your Study Guide.e. Read the chapter material and, using the Study Guide and the Expert Questions, make notes on what you’re reading. Don’t COPY sentences in your textbook word-for-word, but put a summary sentence for each paragraph you read IN YOUR OWN WORDS.

Some Questions…
Skin is composed of an epithelial layer and a connective tissue layer. Is skin a membrane?
What is a membrane?
How does the structure of the the integument, enable it to perform its functions of protection, temperature regulation, etc.?
That is the subject of this lecture…
Is there a difference between the skin (integument) and the integumentary system?
Yes. The cutaneous membrane
Combination of ET and CT tissues combine to protect/cover other tissues
Yes. Skin is the cutaneous membrane consisting of an epithelium (epidermis) and a dermis (CT). The integumentary system (IS) includes the skin, hair, nails, and glands (accessory structures).

Introduction to the Integumentary System
• The integument constitutes 7% of our body weight and has a surface area of about 1.5 – 2.0 m2 (15 – 20 ft2)
• Functions of the integument– Protection (from mechanical/chemical/bacterial
damage, UV radiation)– Temperature regulation (extreme heat, extreme
cold) and Fluid conservation– Excretion– Vitamin D production– Sensation (touch, pressure)

Cells of the Epidermis
• Epidermis of the skin is classified as a keratinized stratified squamous epithelium
• Cells of the epidermis include– Keratinocytes (90%)
• Keratin – a tough, fibrous intracellular protein (protection)• Lamellar granules (waterproofing, extracellular)
– Melanocytes (8%)• Produce melanin (protection from UV radiation)
– Langerhans cells (1-2%)• Migrate to skin from bone marrow• Participate in skin’s immune response (dendritic cells)
– Merkel cells (< 1%)• Least numerous; specialized epithelial cells• Function in sensation of touch
10
Thick and Thin Skin
Thin (0.07-0.12 mm)(epidermal thickness) Thick (0.8-1.4 mm)
(epidermal thickness)
Thick skin - palms of hands, soles of feet; five epidermal layers
Thin skin - everywhere else; four epidermal layers (no s. lucidum)

basale
12
Layers of the EpidermisStratum basale (Bottom) (germinativum)
- lowest layer
- single layer of dividing cells that continually replace more superficial epithelial cells
- contains Merkel cells (touch) and melanocytes (pigment)
- attached by hemidesmosomes to underlying basal lamina
- epidermal ridges; contours of skin follow ridges = fingerprints
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
13
Layers of the EpidermisStratum spinosum (spiny)
- 8-10 layers of rounded cells with large nuclei
- held together by desmosomes
- cells continue to divide
- Langerhans (immune) cells found here
*
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
14
Layers of the Epidermis
Stratum granulosum (granular)
- 3-5 layers of keratinocytes
- most no longer divide
- begin making lots of keratin and keratohyalin (KH) * cells flatten and harden * cell membranes thicken * KH promotes dehydration and cross-linking of keratin fibers * nuclei begin to disintegrate and cells die
*
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
15
Layers of the Epidermis
Stratum lucidum (clear)
- ONLY in THICK SKIN
- flattened, densely packed, and filled with keratin (eleidin)
- separates the s. corneum from the s. granulosum
- Water resistant boundary layer of keratinized skin
Figure from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
16
Layers of the Epidermis
Stratum corneum (horny)
- 15-30 layers of dead keratinized cells (dander)
- exposed to outside
- tightly connected by desmosomes
- remain for about 2 weeks
- water-resistant * interstitial fluids slowly permeate and evaporate (insensible perspiration) * damage to epidermis greatly increases this water loss * fluid collection between cells creates blistersFigure from: Martini, Anatomy &
Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001

Skin Color
Genetic Factors• varying amounts and type of melanin• varying size/number of melanin granules• albinos lack melanin (but not melanocytes!)
Environmental Factors• sunlight• UV light from sunlamps • X rays
Physiological Factors• dilation of dermal blood vessels (erythema)
• constriction of dermal blood vessels (less pink, pale = pallor)
• level of oxygenation of blood * normal = pink (fair-skinned) * low = bluish (cyanosis)
• carotene -> Vit A (yellow)
• jaundice (yellow)
20
Skin Color and Melanin
Figure from: Martini, Fundamentals of Anatomy & Physiology, Pearson Education, 2004
Melanocytes and melanin facts
- tyrosine (aa) melanin - UV radiation up-regulates production of melanin - Caucasian vs. dark-skinned * number vs. activity * layer of epidermis
Dark-skinned Fair-skinned
21
Other Epidermal Facts
• Vitamin D3 (“sunshine vitamin”)– After UV irradiation epidermal cells in s. spinosum and
s. basale convert a cholesterol-related steroid to Vit D3 (cholecalciferol)
– Vit D3 – absorption of calcium and phosphorus by small intestine
• Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)– Produced in salivary glands and duodenum
– Widespread effects on epithelia cell division in s. basale and s. spinosum production of keratin epidermal development and repair synthetic activity and secretion by epithelial glands
22
DermisPapillary layer (contains papillae) - areolar connective tissue (CT) - capillaries and sensory neurons - dermal papillae - fingerprints (with epi. ridges)
Reticular layer (contains fibers) - dense, irregular CT - collagen fiber bundles extend upward and downward - also contains elastic fibers and cells of CT proper - accessory organs of integumentary system (from epi.) - cleavage or tension lines - flexure lines

23
Dermis
Figure adapted from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
Circulation - cutaneous plexus (CP) - branches of CP supply hair follicles, glands, other structures - form papillary plexus
Nerves - control blood flow - regulate gland secretion - monitor sensory reception - light touch (Meissner’s) - deep touch/pressure (Pacinian or lamellated corpuscles) - naked nerve endings to epithelium (pain, temperature)
24
Subcutaneous Layer
- Stabilization of dermis
- Areolar and adipose tissue- Effect of hormones- Reservoir of blood
Also called ‘hypodermis’. This is the superficial fascia.
- INSULATION
25
Removal of Subcutaneous Fat - Liposuction

Hair (pilo-)
• epidermal cells
• tube-like depression
• extends into dermis
• hair root (in dermis)
• hair shaft (outer 1/3)
• hair papilla
• dead epidermal cells
• melanin• arrector pili muscle
A hair in the scalp grows for 2-5 years, about 0.33mm/day

Hair Follicles
Figure adapted from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
Some hair color
Types of hair:
1. Lanugo – long, blond, fine (fetal, anorexia nervosa)
2. Vellus – short, blond (children, adult females)
3. Terminal – coarse, pigmented (adults)

Sebaceous (Oil) Glands
• holocrine glands
• absent on palms and soles
• usually associated with hair follicles
• secrete sebum, a waxy, oily material
• inhibits growth of bacteria
• lubricates and protects keratin of hair shaft, and conditions skin
Sebaceous follicles – not associated with hair. Discharge directly on to skin. On face, back, chest, nipples and male sex organs.
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010
32
Sweat Glands
• apocrine (merocrine secr.) glands - associated with hair follicles - thick, odorous secretion
• ceruminous glands
• mammary glands
• also called sudoriferous glands
• eccrine (merocrine secr.) glands - most numerous - palms, soles, forehead, neck, back - directly on to surface - watery secretion - for thermoregulation
Specialized (apocrine secretion)
Sweating (usu excessive) with visible wetness = diaphoresis

Regulation of Body TemperatureHyperthermia – Abnormally high body temperature
May be caused by - environment (heat, humidity) - illness (fever [>=37.20C], pyrexia) - anesthesia (malignant h.)
Corrected by loss of heat by radiation, convection, conduction, evaporation
Heat exhaustion (prostration) - Fatigue - Dizziness - Headache - Muscle cramps - Nausea - May lead to heat stroke
Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P, 12th edition, 2010
36
Regulation of Body TemperatureHypothermia – Abnormally low body temperature (at least 20C below normal body temp)
May be caused by:
- exposure to cold (primary)
- illness (secondary)
- surgical induction (clinical)
Cardiac arrest is likely if temperature falls below 28oC (82oF)
Corrected by mechanisms to retain body heat (see left)Figure from: Hole’s Human A&P,

Healing of Cuts
37
Tissue repair can occur by either: 1) regeneration – healing with tissue that was originally present2) fibrosis – healing with ‘scar’ tissue

1. Bleeding/clotting
2. Scab formation
3. Epidermal cell migration and collagen production
4. Shedding of scab; covering of wound with epithelium

Life Span Changes
• Melanin production slows• Hair thins• Number of hair follicles decrease• Impaired nail growth• Sensory receptors decline• Inability to control body temperature• Less vitamin D production
• Scaly skin as sebaceous glands secrete less oil• Age spots• Dermis becomes reduced• Loss of fat• Wrinkles• Sagging
43
Review
• The Integumentary System has numerous functions that are related to its composition and structure– Protection – Temperature regulation (sweat, blood vessels)– Excretion– Vitamin D production– Sensation (touch, pressure)
• The epidermis – the outer, protective layer– S. basale, s. spinosum, s. granulosum, s. lucidum
(thick skin only), s. corneum
44
Review
• The dermis – the lower, nutritive layer– Papillary dermis– Reticular dermis– Dermis contains accessory organs of skin
• The hypodermis (subcutaneous) – insulates– The superficial fascia– ‘baby fat’– reservoir of blood– NOT part of the skin
45
Review
• Accessory structures of the integumentary system– Hair– Nails (parts of nails)– Sweat glands
• Apocrine (merocrine)
• Eccrine (merocrine)
• Modified (mammary, ceruminous)
– Sebaceous glands and sebaceous follicles– These structures are vital for skin repair since
they act as a source of epithelial cells
46
Review
• Skin color is due to many factors– Genetic (melanin)
– Environmental (UV irradiation)
– Physiologic• Dilation of dermal blood vessels – erythema
• Poor oxygenation of blood – cyanosis
• Constriction of dermal blood vessels – pale skin
• Carotene, jaundice (yellow skin)
47
Review• Temperature regulation is an important function of the
integumentary system
– Body can lose heat by• Radiation• Evaporation• Convection• Conduction
– Hyperthermia (ABOVE normal core temperature)• Dilation of dermal blood vessels• Increased sweat gland secretion
– Hypothermia (BELOW normal core temperature)• Constriction of dermal blood vessels• Decrease in sweat gland secretion
48
Review
• Stem cells in the epithelium and dermis are crucial to repair after injury– Wound healing and regeneration– Burns
• Numerous changes occur in the integumentary system with age (Ugh!)
